The FEI Anti-Doping Rules for both human and equine athletes are being revised in 2020 for implementation on 1 January 2021. 

The FEI Equine Anti-Doping and Controlled Medication Regulation (EADCMR) will undergo a full review in line with the introduction of the new WADA Code on 1 January 2021. While some changes to the EADCMR will be mandatory to ensure that the FEI remains WADA compliant, the FEI has scope to adapt the rules to reflect the specificities of equestrian sport in some areas. 

Prior to the revision process which gets underway on 13 July, the FEI is asking for feedback from stakeholders. The FEI highly recommends all concerned individuals and organisations – athletes, coaches, chef d’equipes, support team personnel, veterinarians, medical officers and national federations – to acquaint themselves with the Anti-Doping Rules and the (potential) changes for 2021 and give their feedback on subjects such as the EADCMR, contamination, sanctions and testing. The FEI has also listed a number of questions in order to interact on all the key points.
